November Happenings
Kendra Scott Fundraiser
We want to send out a big “Thank you!” to all those who supported our Kendra Scott fundraiser this past month. We also appreciate Kendra Scott for their awesome company Give Back program! It was a delight to partner with you for this endeavor.
All proceeds benefited our Walk to End Alzheimer’s Team and the Alzheimer’s Association. 💜 👏🏼
Thankful for our Referral Partners!
This past month we held an appreciation event for our referral partners at Sugo Restaurant. We just wanted to say “Thank You!” for all their assistance and support throughout the past year.
